Funding

How Ohio funds schools

Ohio funds districts through the Fair School Funding Plan (the Cupp-Patterson plan), which builds a base cost per pupil from real inputs — staffing ratios, salaries, building operations and special education — then splits the cost between state and local shares using a capacity measure that weighs property valuation (60%) and resident income (40%). The FY2026–27 budget continued the formula but froze its cost inputs at FY2022 data, so the state share no longer tracks current costs.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Wadsworth City School District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.

Accountability

Report card & state results

Ohio rates districts on the Ohio School Report Cards using a 1-to-5-star system across Achievement, Progress, Gap Closing, Graduation, Early Literacy and College/Career/Workforce Readiness. Look up Wadsworth City School District on the Ohio School Report Cards.

Accreditation

Accreditation status

Ohio does not use a private accreditor for its public districts; the state recognizes and holds districts accountable directly through the Department of Education and Workforce and the report-card system, while Cognia accreditation remains voluntary for individual schools. See the Ohio DEW.
